Question:
The area of a rectangular plot is 462 m2 and its length is 28 m. Find the perimeter of the plot.
Solution:
Area of the rectangular plot = 462 m2
Length (l) = 28 m
Area of a rectangle $=$ Length $(l) \times$ Breadth $(b)$
$\Rightarrow 462=28 \times b$
$\Rightarrow b=16.5 \mathrm{~m}$
Perimeter of the plot $=2(l+b)$
$=2(28+16.5)$
$=2 \times 44.5$
$=89 \mathrm{~m}$
